Ingredients
Scale
Cheesecake Filling:
- 3 ounces (85 grams) cream cheese, softened
- 2 1/2 tablespoons (37.5 milliliters) powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 milliliters) vanilla extract
Dough:
- 1 (8 ounces/226 grams) tube of crescent roll dough
Fruit:
- 2/3 cup (100 grams) fresh blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for optimal preparation.
- Whip cream cheese, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar in a mixing bowl until achieving a silky, uniform consistency.
- Carefully unfold the crescent dough triangles and distribute the cream cheese mixture evenly across each piece, ensuring complete coverage.
- Generously scatter fresh blueberries over the cream cheese layer, creating a vibrant and flavorful foundation.
- Gently roll each triangle from the wider end toward the point, creating compact and neat pastry spirals.
- Arrange the rolled pastries on the prepared baking sheet, leaving slight spacing between each roll for even cooking.
- Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-13 minutes, watching for a golden-brown exterior that indicates perfect doneness.
- Remove from the oven and allow the rolls to cool for a few minutes, allowing the filling to set and flavors to meld.
- Serve warm to experience the delightful contrast between the flaky pastry, creamy filling, and burst of fresh blueberry sweetness.
Notes
- Choose fresh, plump blueberries for the most vibrant flavor and juiciest texture in your rolls.
- Keep cream cheese at room temperature to ensure a smoother, easier-to-spread mixture without lumps.
- For a gluten-free version, swap crescent dough with gluten-free puff pastry or a similar alternative.
- Experiment with different berries like raspberries or strawberries to create unique flavor variations of these delightful rolls.
